No matter if you’re a seasoned business owner or just getting started as an entrepreneur, starting a new business poses a lot of questions. The first decision you’ll need to make is which industry best suits your skills and goals.
You’ve got no shortage of options, from traditional opportunities like convenience stores to newer innovations in the health and wellness industry. We believe that choosing a tried-and-true option in the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry, like Burger King®, gives franchisees access to an established business system, training, and ongoing support..
When you choose to franchise with Burger King®, you’re joining a brand that’s committed to supporting the next generation. Burger King® Co-Founder James “Jim” W. McLamore strongly believed in the importance of higher education for all and prioritized investing in students’ success.
To honor his dedication, the Burger King® Scholars program was created in 2000, and over the past 23 years, the Burger King® Foundation has awarded over $58 million in scholarship funds to more than 48,000 students. Each restaurant provides a $1,000 scholarship to a college-bound student in their area. Additionally, local students are eligible for the James W. McLamore WHOPPER® scholarship, which annually grants three $50,000 awards to deserving students nationwide.
